The first Ashes Test might have been won by Australia but the cricket body is staring at a revenue loss. Here's the full story.
Cricket Australia are staring down a multimillion-dollar drain after the Ashes opener between England and Australia finished in two days at the Optus Stadium in Perth. Travis Head, who came out to open in the final innings in the absence of Usman Khawaja , played a whirlwind knock of 123 runs as Australia chased down the target of 205 runs inside 29 overs. The first Ashes Test was played on a pitch that offered considerable assistance to the pacers, making the batters' task tough.
The total of 205 was the highest for both teams across all the innings, and this was the first time that either team went past the 200-run mark in the Perth Test.
